The color of my 2005 is called "LT Tarnished Silver" , I have never heard anyone on here mention their car being this color.. Is it a uncommon color or have I just not been paying attention? ....WW

Never heard of the color. '05 silver is "Machine Silver" Are you sure it's not just dirty?

The color code on my build sheet is 67U LT TARN. SILV. Then on the window sticker it is Machine Silver Metallic. They are both the same but usually called Machine Silver.

Ok, that explains a lot..When I got paint from the dealer for my car, the number they looked up said "Lt Tarn Silver" and that's also what the touchup paint said.. Thanks..WW

Tarnished Silver is color of my 2007 TrailBlazer SS. Was able to pick up duplicolor touch up paint at Advance Auto.

Talk about a bad name for a color....

Machine Silver. I had one, new, out of the local dealer's showroom.

GM colors are sometimes called by different names depending on the car, even though they are the same color. Light Tarnish Silver Metallic was one name for #67, on a Vette they call it Machine Silver. It's #67, same color.

Just bought some touch up paint and the 3 sites I looked at called the color Lt tarnished silver metallic for 2005-2008. In 2009 the silver was switchblade silver metallic. It does have the slightest hint of gold(tarnished) in it. It is WA994L/ 67 for a code. Machine silver is as stated above also 67.

That makes sense.

My '14 LRG's official touch-up paint name is actually called "Unripened Green". Sound's appetizing, doesn't it?

EVRose

I guess that's better than "Over-Ripened Green".
Then again, I don't know what a Lime Rock is.

owc6

It's a race track.

Even ten years later my 06 Machine Silver is nowhere near being tarnished....
